We retrieved the mass-specific scattering coefficient b*sm(λ) = 0.60·(λ/650) of the inhomogeneous and optically complex water column of eastern Lake Constance in May 2012. In-situ measured and modelled remote-sensing reflectance Rrs(λ) were matched via a parameter search procedure using genetic algorithms. The optical modelling consisted of solving the azimuthally-averaged Radiative Transfer Eq...

Previous studies have shown that an exposure to sub-inhibitory levels of kanamycin induces capsule synthesis which confers antibiotic resistance. To examine the role of spoT and relA genes in capsule synthesis and acquired physiological antibiotic resistance during sub-inhibitory kanamycin treatment, multiple studies were performed but showed inconclusive results. A potential explanation for th...

The λ Red recombination system was used in this study in an attempt to inactivate the lacI gene in Escherichia coli C29 cells. The proposed model retained the first 41 amino acids of the lacI gene, and replaced the rest of the gene with a linear double-stranded DNA PCR product that confers kanamycin resistance. The PCR products encode a kanamycin cassette with lacI flanking region. The initial ...

Evidence for the recognition of a secondary structure of carrageenan chains present in red algae tissues. Abstract We report the isolation, for the first time by phage display, of a scFv recombinant antibody called B3 directed against carrageenans, the major sulphated polysaccharides of red seaweeds. Immunoassays were used to characterize the binding of B3 antibodies towards the three main carr...

Here we examine how exposure to blue (peaking at λ=470 nm), green λ=505 nm) and red λ=630 light affects subsequent working memory performance measured with visual N-back tasks associated functional brain responses in participants extreme morning evening chronotype. We used within-subjects experimental manipulation on carefully selected samples state of the art equipment for exposure. The result...

In the paper, we study real forms of complex generic Neumann system. We prove that are completely integrable Hamiltonian systems. The system is an example more general Mumford characterized by Lax pair (Lℂ(λ), Mℂ(λ)) 2 × matrices, where and Uℂ(λ), Vℂ(λ), Wℂ(λ) suitable polynomials. topology a regular level set moment map form determined positions roots with respect to position values parameters...
